Even as the state has seen a wet start to the winter season, Cal Water encourages customers to remain vigilant in their conservation efforts. Last year, the state saw a promising snowpack in December melt away by April.
"I would like to thank our customers for their continuing conservation efforts, which were above and beyond the 15 percent state goal in December," said Martin A. Kropelnicki, President and CEO. "While we have seen a strong start to this winter, increasingly warm temperatures and a less reliable snowpack make conservation a necessary way of life in California. We urge our customers to stay mindful of their water use and continue to save water every day."
